Hi All
I had 15w-50 oil in my engine but due to me doing short distance driving oilman recommended i use 5w-40 so i did, but the problem i have is it takes the 5w-40 fully synthetic the same amount of time as the 15w-50 to reach 80 degrees?? I also have a problem when im driving along all of a sudden the temp would be on 80 degrees then drop to 70 and back up to 80 but most of the time it drops down to 70 why is that does anyone know?
Thanks
Mark
